It is fundamental to human creativity. Children, it turns out need a childhood.“ -David whitebread, The Call of the Wild and Free: Reclaiming Wonder in Your Child's Education • • • Thank you to my parents for getting this adorable little table from @wayfair for the kid’s birthdays. Seeing Eliana play tea party with her dollies brings me right back to my childhood. I don’t think there was a more content place in all the world than with my imagination and my dolls. I’m so thankful that my parents let me play, let me imagine and let me get into trouble doing both. Play does so much for the child’s brain. • • • As a younger mom I may have lost my focus at times, getting caught in a trap of comparisons. How much can my child learn and how quickly can he learn it? (As if someone gets a badge for the most information stuffed into a child’s brain, or if somehow it prepares them more for life if they read at age 5 opposed to say age 6 or 7. We had lots of “organized play” with sports practices & play dates, music lessons and so forth. None of that bad in itself in moderation, but now I realize the incredible value in allowing the child to engross himself in imaginative play, to problem solve, to create, to make a mess. To be kids. I have Ainsley Arment, Charlotte Mason & My Father’s World to thank so much for reminding me the value of letting children just be children. ❤️ And of course, my @amelia_lugones who danced to her own beat regardless of what anyone said. • • • @mfwbooks @wildandfree.co #wildandfreechildren #letthemplay #letthembelittle #wildandfree #charlottemasonliving #kidsplayroom #playroom #kidsroom #decoratingonabudget #charlottemasonmama #wildandfreemama #melissaanddoug #kidsdecor #wayfair #myfathersworldcurriculum #targetstyle A post shared by Tammy Lugones (@lugoneslife) on May 4, 2020 at 12:42pm PDT
